dancing_moonI turned my head a bit too quickly while dying my hair, and smacked myself in the eye with a lump of Wella's red hairdye, aimed so well that I couldn't see clearly out of that eye for 12 hours? No?
Well, today I almost repeated the experience, with only two minor differences.
1) My hair was full of bleach. Not good.
2) I was a bit quicker in closing my eyelid this time, and didn't even feel a sting. Only fried off a few eyelashes and caused a bit of ohshitohshit jumping around and flushing my face with water >_>
So, yes, experiments in hairdying have been taken up again. My new bathroom has less porous surface than the old one, but also fewer places to put stuff. And when I went to buy dye, they'd run out of almost all nuances of Manic Panic, only some red and yellow ones left. I had to settle for Stargazer, I hope it lasts a bit longer :/
Still haven't found a store in Stockholm that sells SFX dye, and only one little shop on Drottninggatan carries Manic Panic... and all other brands I've tried so far have varied between utter crapp and barely acceptable. Fudge was okay-ish, but those yars that they sell at Blue Fox and Buttericks are rubbish.
Lastly, I had forgotten how strong an effect bleach fumes has on my sinuses. Runny nose for hours, guh (but still no asthmatic reaction. My lungs are weird, yo)
